Links to Lines with Unittesting #17001
Description
Discussed in #16863

With unittests, I think that it would be a nice idea to include links to line numbers to improve productivity. By this I mean that when an error comes up, with an error message, it should link to the line number where it says "line ...". If this is not clear, see below:
Traceback (most recent call last):
<filename here> line 123 in function:
raise Exception('This is where the error would occur')
Exception: This is where the error would occurWhere it says "line 123", there could be a link to the line in the file, so that it opens the file at that line in the editor. I thought of this because there is a link to the file (which opens in the editor), but there is not a link to that line in the file.
